Southern Scene (Dave Brubeck Quartet, Trio and Duo; Columbia). Brubeck and men, in warm and witty mood, return to the folk materials they have examined so successfully before. Brubeck contributes some quietly capering choruses to When It's Sleepy Time Down South and Jeannie With the Light Brown Hair. Alto Saxophonist Paul Desmond offers a fine, wistful solo in Southern Scene, and the whole group swings with a loose, happy-holiday feeling...
...Subterraneans (Arthur Freed; M-G-M). The bushy-bearded Beat Generation is a collective hair farm that the average solid citizen does not dig. Nevertheless, in this picture, which bears about as much relation to Jack Kerouac's novel as Hollywood does to Endsville, Producer Arthur Freed attempts to sell the beatniks back to the mass culture they are desperately and often comically trying to escape. He shaves them down, scrubs them up and presents them, in deadly earnest, as pioneers in the great American tradition, as "The Young Bohemians . . . the makers of the future."

Wherever Nikita Khrushchev went last week, he had a shadow. Whether it was Paris, Berlin or Moscow, there at Nikita's elbow was the hulking, impassive Ukrainian, whose short-cropped grey hair and bulldog face were in dour contrast to his gleaming epaulets and the nine rows of gaily colored medal ribbons that adorned his chest.

...goddesses of Greece and Rome. They were fascinated by centaurs and Tritons, and they could produce a handsome Athena or Roma, helmet and all. They dutifully gave Buddha's head the magic bump that marked his Buddhahood-though they were likely to disguise it under a mop of hair inspired by Apollo. Buddha himself often appeared draped in a Roman toga, and some of the men could have come straight out of the Roman Senate. But while the artists borrowed, they did not copy; the spiritual serenity of their work could have come only from the East...
...visits and phone calls to Federal Power commissioners in behalf of his high-paying ($5,000 per month) client, Tennessee Gas Transmission Co. Last week the cocky Cork arrived for his long-awaited performance before the House Subcommittee on Legislative Oversight. Although he has gained weight and his hair has silvered, Tommy, now 59, showed that he has lost none of the brashness and slickness that made him a leading figure in Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal brain trust. He talked so fast and so long for two days that he confused and angered the committee; he insisted that...
